Whorton Greenacres Place Living Estate Sale

Welcome to the Living Estate of Buck and Bobbie Rose Whorton—a well-kept home filled with warmth, comfort, and years of thoughtful collecting.  From the moment you enter, you can feel the care and intention the Whortons put into creating an environment with touches of Southern tradition and Italian and French influence from their travels throughout Europe.  Cast iron pedestals and urns flank the front entry, adding a classic touch as you approach the home.

Inside, the living areas offer comfortable Italian leather seating, tasteful décor, and the impressive Baldwin grand piano that sets the tone for the home. Lighting and artwork are placed with an eye for balance, creating a relaxed yet refined atmosphere.

The kitchen is a true cook’s delight, designed for someone who enjoys entertaining—especially during the holidays.  The space includes generous stainless-steel cookware, a variety of baking dishes, and beautiful crystal pieces, including select Waterford bowls and elegant stemware.  Fine china and the inviting formal dining room provide a perfect setting for holiday meals and special gatherings.

The home also features a noteworthy collection of Giuseppe Armani sculptures from Florence, Italy, thoughtfully arranged and well cared for.  The bedrooms continue the home’s calm, cohesive look, including a beautifully dressed canopy bed with coordinated custom linens and décor.

Step into the peaceful meditation garden and the well-kept side and backyard, where tasteful landscaping and thoughtfully arranged garden accents create a relaxing outdoor space.  Cast-stone lions and two fountains—a classic multi-tier design with scalloped basins and a smaller aged-stone fountain—add gentle visual interest without overwhelming the setting.

A selection of outdoor statuary brings charm and character, including resin figures of the Madonna, St. Francis, and classical maidens, along with a few almost life-size concrete statues and pedestals that provide height and balance among the planters and greenery.

Outdoor seating is placed throughout, with lightweight aluminum garden benches featuring ornate floral backs and several resin bistro sets ideal for morning coffee or an afternoon visit.  A sturdy A-frame swing with iron-mesh seating offers a quiet place to sit and enjoy the view.

Finishing touches throughout the estate include two Howard Miller grandfather clocks and one Sligh, as well as impressive porcelain Asian fish bowls and floor vases.  Together, these elements create a comfortable environment—inside and out—that reflects the thoughtful curation of the Whorton home.
